One day, I asked my father. "Papa, why you gave 'Sari Alessandra' for my name?"
He answered, "Why do you ask?"
"Well, I know the meaning of my name. 'Alessandra' derived from 'Alexander'. 'Alexander' derived from 'Alexo' which means 'to defend, help'."
I continued, "I'm asking you to know the reason you gave me that name. So do Agi. Why did you gave him 'Robby Khossagi' for his name? How about Liza? And Rubi? Why, Pa?"
It took a while for Papa to reply.
"I gave you those names because I want you to become a great people," my father replied.
[I've just watch Gladiator. Maximus is a great man. I wish that I could have such honour and spirit like him. For my name have not reflect its greatness. But I still have time.... ]
